DPN Node What is DPN? All building a digital preservation backbone for the academy

8
What Does DPN Do? 1.Establishes a network of heterogeneous, interoperable, trustworthy, preservation repositories (Nodes) 2.Replicates content across the network, to multiple nodes 3.Enables restoration of preserved content to any node in the event of data loss, corruption or disaster 4.Ensures the ongoing preservation of digital information from depositors in the event of dissolution or divestment of depositors or an individual repository 5.Provides the option to (technically and legally) "brighten content" preserved in the network over time

10
Critical Assumptions & Definitions All content enters DPN by deposit into one of the DPN Nodes. The First Node is the point of entry for a given piece of content; Nodes with copies of this content are Replicating Nodes. DPN Members will work directly with an individual DPN Node to negotiate contracts and determine service levels Service levels and contracts will reflect standard DPN services; they may also reflect the First Nodes unique offerings in terms of access, hosting or other services. Content in Replicating Nodes will be held dark, and inaccessible except for preservation actions.

11
Critical Assumptions & Definitions DPN shall redistribute preserved content as Nodes enter and leave the Network, ensuring continuity of preservation services over time. DPN will provide a large-scale network of dark archives that enable the opportunity to brighten content in the future, but does not mandate how this is done. Depositors, First Nodes and their designated communities will collaborate to ensure that the information contents of DPN deposits are accessible for reuse in the future, using the appropriate (and evolving) community standards for any given set of content.

12
Specifications (sample of…) 1. DPN will make multiple copies of content from a First Node to Replicating Nodes. 5. DPN will repair or replace any replicated content at any node when corruption is detected. 7. DPN will assure the security of replicated content during transmission so that no content is lost, corrupted, or exposed. 16. DPN will be able to support the introduction or exit / cessation of DPN Nodes by redistributing content among new/continuing nodes to ensure sufficient copies are kept according to policies.
